Burton enjoys afternoon experience with the Hokies

A lifelong Virginia Tech fan, NASCAR driver Jeb Burton attended the football team's Tuesday practice and got to meet with the players and coaching staff

BLACKSBURG – Jeb Burton is used to driving fast, dashing down straightaways at more then 200 miles per hour and clutching his steering wheel while navigating turns. Racing is in his blood and it provides him with experiences that are nearly unequaled.

Burton, though, enjoyed a memorable Tuesday in Blacksburg when he and his sister, Sarah Graper, accepted invitations to be a part of the Hokies’ football program for a day.
